The world is grappling with a big problem: depression. It's the top cause of disability globally. So, what if there was a way to fight it using something most people already have? A smartphone. This is exactly what a new study is exploring. It's all about an app called MoodMover. This app is design
The liver is often seen as the body's filter, but it also plays a role in heart health. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a condition where fat builds up in the liver. It was once called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. MASLD is not just a liver issue. It can affe
The world of organic solar cells is buzzing with potential. One big challenge is managing how small molecules in the cathode interlayer stack together. These tiny building blocks can clump up too much, making the solar cells less effective. This is a problem for a popular small molecule called PD
The planet 55 Cancri e is a hot, rocky world that's been puzzling scientists. It shows big changes in brightness over short periods. These changes happen in both visible and infrared light. The temperature swings are massive, around 1, 400 Kelvin, give or take a few hundred. This is like the differe
Hypoxia, or low oxygen levels, is a big deal in biology. It affects many processes in the body. Recently, researchers found that lnc-HZ06, a long non-coding RNA, plays a role in how cells handle low oxygen. This is especially important in trophoblast cells, which are crucial for a healthy pregnancy.
Waste materials are often seen as a problem. However, they can be a solution. They can help fight climate change. This is what a recent study shows. The study looked at different waste materials. These materials can capture carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a big part of landfill gas. This gas comes
Cells in our bodies have a gender identity, which is crucial for understanding health differences between males and females. This might sound surprising, but it's true. Every cell in our body, not just reproductive cells, carries sex chromosomes that influence how our organs develop and function. Th
The medical world is buzzing about a new kind of test. These tests can spot many types of cancer early. They look for clues in blood, urine, and other body fluids. These clues are released by cancer cells. Doctors hope these tests can change how we find and treat cancer. But there is a big question.
The world of genetic testing is not always as fair as it should be. A recent study looked into how often people at risk for ovarian cancer get the genetic tests they need. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network suggests that people with a family history of ovarian cancer should get tested for g
The retrial of Karen Read, a 45-year-old woman from Mansfield, is underway. She is accused of killing her boyfriend, a Boston police officer named John O'Keefe. The jury selection process wrapped up on April 15, after three weeks of work. Out of the 18 people selected, 12 will make the final decisio
